Hi Guy's, Trud's here, just wanted to say hello and share my great news that the E30 318is I baught last September has just passed her MOT with flying colours, no problems at all, I know i've probably p*ssed some people off that are reading this, but please be happy for me, she's my babe!!!!!

With heating problem also resolved and new air hoses she's running great!

Can anyone let me know if there's going to be anymore meetings soon, the last one at Portsdown Hill was great.

Bye for now, Trud's.

why do my E30's never have that luck? :( my ex wifes E34 sport breezed the mot a while ago, closely followed by her corrado! :evil:
the closest i've ever had was my kickaround shitter of a rover 414! £15 on repairs for the mot last year, £1.19 this year!!! :D and i can safely say i've spent no more than a fiver per year on maintenence on the thing too! treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen!!!!

Nice one truds !

Mine went in for an ( early ) M.O.T yesterday, and failed on 1 brakepipe, which I think is incredible for a 17 y.o car. Chuffed to bits !!

Like my R5 then,in just over three years i've spent £33 on parts :D which was 5 tyres,one set of front brake pads and a clutch cable.
Even when the head gasket blew I just took one out of a spare engine to save £4 buying a new one.
